Reminds me of when I was a repair tech and a guy brought in his *cough*
Swan *cough* and he had swapped the shield and hot. Let me tell you,
that doesn't make the microphone work any better.

Don, Scott - et all -
Thanks for the help - after doing a full reset & re-
alignment then disassembling the radio to check
for GND @ mic socket pins 7&8 (ok), I re-assembled
K2 #4913 and focused on the mic again.
I had ASSumed the mic was OK because it worked
FB in my Alinco 2m/440 mobile. Well......
After checking the mic again, I found the ground
braid was bad. I cut 2" off the plug end of the cord
and re-wired the plug. Works!
I looked for a fault in the old cord end and found the
braid was tattered & broken right where the clamp was.
Thanks again for the help!
